Summary/Abstract: The analysis of marriages within a community can provide important information on the meaning of demographic processes that are part of the community. Thus, high levels of marriage indicate the existence of young population of childbearing age, able to ensure biological reproduction of the group; a low level of marriage registration shows the regressive model of the community, which can eventually cause the demographic disappearance of the group by depletion of biological regeneration. Our surveys show the findings of a sociological research conducted on Romanian communities from the county of Hajdu-Bihar (Hungary).
